An American icon of film and music, it is estimated that during the 1930s Crosby's music took up 1/2 of the total air time for radio stations broadcasting music. Less publicized were his contributions to broadcast radio, where he invested in reel to reel technology and pioneered the recording and editing of radio shows similar to the way films are produced. By the end of his career Bing Crosby would have 41 No. 1 hit songs, 383 chart singles and an Academy Award for best actor. Scott 2850 Bing Crosby
